man those r7's are expensive, been running hard wired v1's in my vehicles for years. I know they out perform the V1 but do I really need a four mile warning?

I know. I have also been thinking about an R3 too, but I like the R7 better overall. I got the R1 because I didnt think I needed the GPS lock out but I hit like 5 false K bands on the way to work and they annoy the crap out of me. The R1 does work great though, saved me from getting a ticket yesterday.

I replaced my Escort Passport with the R7. I don’t need the long range as much as I needed to lock out K band. It drives me crazy!

The R7 has so many options to customize, it’s a mini-computer.

My local cops still run K band sometimes. So maybe the r3 would be right for me.

You can change the priority band, wide to narrow, POP on/off and many other customizable options on the R7. That’s a tough call though.

I haven’t seen a LEO use K band here in almost two years so I feel comfortable turning it off completely.

After hearing Eddie Gallagher (the Navy SEAL that President Trump granted clemency) launched a lifestyle clothing brand Salty Frog Gear I hunted it down and bought something. I chose his Overwatch Tailgater Hoodie in black (of course).

Got gifted a bottle of this over the holidays. Found it very smooth and drank the whole thing with friends over a poker night.

Bought another bottle and added it to my bar.

About $25 dollars difference.

Glenlivet 12 gives you some sugar syrups, honey and apples/pears.

Jameson cask is more chocolate, flat white coffee and butterscotch.

So don't know if it's a fair comparison.

Light saber from Star Wars land FL

I sniped 📷 my son and twin girls on the Disney bus back to the room, the kids had no interest in the park, me and Mrs Miller had a blast, Jedi fights in the hallway!

Btw, the blue milk sucks... butter beer @ Harry Potter world was 10xs better

Getting over that horrible flu going around, but the experience made me realize I have zero ability to take my temperature. Next time I'll have this.

Yep, grown men and women (not with kids) paying hundreds for making a lightsaber, staying in line too

my son wanted one so I got it, if no little millers around I wouldn't be @ Disney, key west all day every day if I could.
